SIXTIES

COAST ROAD

While waiting to transport you back to the 1960s, here are some real gems about Moraira that date back to that period.

After the images, the sound!

In Moraira, radios and record players blared with the sounds of the group Venus, the yé-yé music of José Guardiola, the copla of Juanito Valderrama, the Mambo, the Cha-cha-cha, and the Bolero. A clear Latin influence, hence the enormous success of Ritchie Valens' La Bamba.

The playlist includes the first foreign track

to reach number 1 on the Spanish charts.

This dates back to exactly 1959, to the beginning of the Sixties.

I also include the "classics" which Spain knew very, very little about at the time.
